Where can I find this? BM from bottles vs. formula from breasts?

[rosie29]

A while back there was a thread discussing a BFing educator who had said something along the lines of, if she'd had to choose between feeding breastmilk from bottles versus formula from her breasts, she'd choose the latter. Can anyone tell me where to find an article or other info on this woman and her comments? There's someone I want to share it with, and it's kind of hard to google it without having her name or more specifics.

Thanks! :

The IBCLC is Diane Weissinger. She shares that thought at the start of many of her lectures. Here is her website: http://www.normalfed.com/

Oh, thank you! Okay, now I hate to be a pain, but I poked around her site and do not see mention of that comment I mentioned above. Any chance you can point me to it? :

I looked too - and I can't find it. I did hear Diane speak in Daytona last October and she started out her 'Watch Your Language' session with that very statement -- I started one of the threads you mentioned (I'm sure there's more than one). Maybe you could email her, I found this: [e-mail], and perhaps she has a written paper about this she could send you? It was an excellent session, really though provoking, as were all of the responses to that thread.

Sorry - I don't think she has anything about that on her website - I just knew who you were talking about because I saw her speak at a conference. She's really kind - I bet she'd be happy to receive an email from you.
